Thanks for the pointer. I had absolutely no knowledge of the existence
of such a program. It looks pretty nice, but, according to many
tutorials I have quickly read, it will not help me, as it can, among
other things, put windows at given coordinates, minimize, fullscreen,
center, etc.
One point which is clear is that the window on the PNG screenshot is
already minimized. Consequently, it cannot be displayed smaller (as
some text would be missing, except if there exists a magic program
which can also resize the text [negligible], buttons, and other stuff
[not negligible] composing the window, thus making it smaller),
whatever the program it is done with.
The best thing which could be done by this program would be to make it
appear fullscreen (but not very practical) [(fullscreen)], and to
remove unuseful stuff ([undecorate]). Coupling these two things could
help the content of the window to take less place, consequently
showing buttons, and I shall use this solution if no other one is found.
